You are a dog breeder and are interested in two traits that you believe are inherited by simple genetic loci glossy (G) coat is dominant to dull (g) and Long (L) hair is dominant to short (l). You have a pair of dogs that you have been breeding for several years. The mom is glossy long haired and the dad is dull short haired. Over several litters they have produced the following puppies: 18 Glossy Short 16 Dull Long 8 Dull Short 6 Glossy Long What are the parental gametes produced by this mom

GL, Gl, gL, and gl

Explanation:

The mom is glossy long haired. Since glossy (G) is dominant over to dull (g) and long hair (L) is dominant to short hair (l), the possible genotypes of the mom would be:

GGLL, GgLL, GGLl, or GgLl

The dad is dull and short haired, the genotype would be ggll.

GGLL   x   ggll

Progeny = all GgLl (all glossy long haired)

GgLL   x   ggll

Progeny = 8 GgLl, 8 ggLi (glossy long haired and dull long haired)

GGLl    x    ggll

Progeny = 8 GgLl, 8 Ggll (glossy long haired and glossy short haired)

GgLl    x    ggll

Progeny = 4 GgLl, 4 Ggll, 4 ggLl, 4 ggll (glossy long, glossy short, dull long, and dull short)

Only a cross of ggll with GgLl produced the offspring that cover the phenotypic range shown in the illustration. Hence, the genotype of the mom is GgLl.

The parental gametes produced by the mom would be; GL, Gl, gL, and gl

answer;

c. a tree whose roots are surrounded by wet sand.

explanation;

water stress is an important factor limiting the growth and productivity of forests.water stress is the most often cited cause of poor survival and growth of woody landscape plants.

-insufficient soil moisture is the most common form of water stress, but excess moisture that leads to poor soil aeration (hypoxia) can also result in reduced plant vitality. a tree whose roots are surrounded by wet sand would be least likely to experience water stress.
